Probably - maybe, the best game ever

14 August 2017 | by kpentlanduk – See all my reviews

Keep it sweet and short - Nier Automata has THE most beautiful music, gameplay, and is so so replayable. It is a masterpiece -- for me up there with Zelda, Okami and the Final Fantasy series. GENIUS and please please do invest in it. You will be rewarded again and again - and the emotional impact.... it made me cry twice.
